Your Baby: Week 21
Baby gulps down several ounces of amniotic fluid every day, both for hydration and nutrition and to practice swallowing and digesting. And, these days, those taste buds actually work! Studies show that after birth, babies are most interested in tastes they've already experienced through amniotic fluid. Meaning, think about what you want your future child to eat as you prepare your own lunch.

So this last week has been a tough one. I'm trying to keep positive knowing that this is exactly what I wanted and that Ryken is healthy. But, I have had a horrid pain in my pelvis and pubic bone. It's so off and on and unpredictable. I have a pair of flip flips with an arch support that help and I'm going to buy another pair so I don't wear these out over the next 19 weeks. Also, my dr suggested a maternity support band. So, I ordered one and I'm hoping that helps too. We will see. I am happy knowing that he's still active and moving around, but man it sucks to just stand as much as possible and not knowing when and where the pain will hit. Prayers please?
